Fantasy Faire 2015

At the junction, you will find portals to all the related Fantasy Faire Sims. Some are for shopping, some are for other things, like performances. There is also Silent Auction Vendors up above the water, as the portals are sunken into the deep this year.

The portals are my one of my favorite things about the faire. It might seem odd, but each has to draw you in, with but a little representation of each sim. They are little pieces of art.

While you are there, be sure to pick up this year's LowLag avatars, to make the faire rendering easier for everyone.

The American Cancer Society sim isn't actually attached to the Fairelands itself, but is the central hub for all things RFL. If you are a store, and want to become involved with fundraising, here is a good place to start. There is a lot of information, and stories to read, about survivors, and others, who have made a huge impact irl with their digital selves.

Aurora
(by Beq Janus) – On a world plunged into ice age, men of science seek
answers in the etheral shimmering of the planets energy field. Meanwhile
the Mystics tell tales of the unweaver at whose feet they lay the blame
for their ice-age, their hopes for salvation lie in legends of heroes,
ancient tales of lands across the dimensions, their faith hangs on
finding the lost knowledge that can bring forth the confluence. The two
factions, poles apart in their beliefs are about come together as myth
and machine meet beneath the Northern Lights.

Ichi-go Ichi-e(by
Sharni Azalee) – Let your imagination fly you to a land where anything
is possible. Walk on water among pink clouds in this surreal landscape
where large sakura flowers and other exotic flora tower over you in a
beautiful dream forest of pinks and grays and fawn.

Odyssey
(by Alia Baroque) – “As you set out on your journey to Ithaca, pray
that your journey be a long one, filled with adventure, filled with
discovery.” Barry B. Powell, Classical Myth

Poppetsborough
(by Luna Barak/Alrunia Ahn/Kyra Reiter) – Enter a storybook world with
the emphasis on the book. Have your favorite stories pop to life as you
walk into the book and become the characters of your favorite
fairytales.

Spires of Andolys
(by Jaimy Hancroft/Eowyn Swords) – Crooked little fantasy styled houses
inspired by the fairytales of your childhood. Centered around a
magnificent castle that would be the envy of Sleeping Beauty. Careful
though, the castle guards a secret dungeon hidden deep within its bowels
where the darkest villains are forever forgotten

Sylvan of Spells
(by Sweetgwendoline Bailey/Eldowyn Inshan) – Enchanted grove where our
stories are collected and nurtured by mystic librarians. Books, scrolls
and parchment litter the ground, the debris of the Forest of
Enlightenment.

Tangleshimmer Grove
(by Searlait Nitschke) – Deep in the heart of the wood is the secret
place of Fairies. Golden light bathes the lush green as flowers dance
and the early morning dew lays a glistening shimmer over the world.

Vallacia
(by Mayah Parx) – A floating market town, a bustling trade hub where
denizens of the Fairelands come to trade for even the most obscure of
items. Dark & weatherbeaten, all matter of constructions crisscross
the waters to keep this hodgepodge of shacks,stalls and barges afloat.
Magical mysteries abound in this haven for traders and thieves alike.

Wildehaven Marsh
(by Rynn Verwood) – Settled at the edge of a lake, the village was
created centuries ago, as a safe haven for those who practiced magic. An
air of abandonment floats over the town now, however don’t be fooled,
its magic is still much alive as one can see in the soft glows shining
through the ivy covered windows.

YoZakura
(by Nya Alchemi) – In the late hours of the night, visit the Japanese
Hanami Festival and dream… Traveler behold As Midnight courts the Moon
and Cherry blossoms dance
